“The Year of the Remake” has brought up some great memories for songs we used to know and, in some cases, made new memorable versions of them. There’s also been plenty of good new songs to add to our playlists from new and upcoming music directors as well as many of our favourites. Here are 20 of the best from 2018, in order of their release.
‘Swagpur Ka Chaudhary’ – Kaalakaandi — Akshay Verma
Electric sound with electric imagery. A song to keep you dancing even if you’re sitting down with badass lyrics to boot.
‘Theher Ja’ – October — Armaan Malik
Soft, smooth, sad but not painfully so. Says come back but finds peace in memories and loss.
‘Nit Khair Manga’ – Raid — Rahat Fateh Ali Khan
A remake of his father’s song, Rahat doesn’t do well as a facsimile here but the modernisation by Tanishk Bagchi and the words which touch...

After being feted at the Cannes Film Festival, Anurag Kashyap’s Gangs of Wasseypur has certainly caught the eyes of the international media and critics. Releasing the same day as Teri Meri Kahaani, this film looks like it might just steal the limelight away from the romcom. The buzz for the film has been huge, it got a standing ovation in Cannes and will open the London Indian Film Festival. Kashyap has taken a chance on composer Sneha Khanwalkar who was behind the music of Oye Lucky Oye and Love Sex Aur Dhokha. If those interesting soundtracks are anything to go by, then this album is sure to be an inventive and varied bunch of songs! The film will be released in two parts, which may account for only 14 songs this time round of the 25 Kashyap has boasted about! These 14 songs comprise of one the best albums of the year so far,...

Touted as Bollywood’s first sperm donation comedy, Vicky Donor is certainly a risky film that could not have been made during previous eras. With the support of producer John Abraham, Vicky Donor made its debut with six other trailers for Housefull 2. Starring VJ Ayushmann Khurrana in the lead role, the film tackles the heavy and important issue of sperm donation with a comic twist. With a comedy film, one expected the music to be a bit of timepass but this album is quite fresh and fun. Akshay and Abhishek are the music directors for the film and they offer up a mixed bag of treats. The crowd pleaser tune ‘Rum Whisky’ is definitely going to have a long life after the film, and the rest of the songs try and equally match up to this gem.
